Abstract
Nausea and vomiting of moderate intensity are especially common complaints in early gestation. Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG), which is the most severe form of this disorder, occurs in 0.5–2% of pregnancies and is associated with weight loss, ketonemia, ketonuria, electrolyte imbalance, dehydration, and possible hepatic and renal damage.Keywords
